F[/size=6]rench authorities captured satellite images of likely man-made objects floating on the southern Indian Ocean two weeks after MH370 went missing in 2014, a new report has revealed.
The four images were taken from a 25,000 square kilometre area the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) says may hold the jet but has not been searched as it is to the north of the official 120,000 sq km search zone.
The ATSB chief commissioner, Greg Hood, sounded a note of caution in releasing the pictures but said the information could be used to inform any future search efforts.

“These objects have not been definitely identified as MH370 debris,” Hood said.
The Australian Transport Safety Bureau’s search for MH370 was suspended indefinitely in January after a deep sea sonar scan in the southern Indian Ocean failed to find any trace of the plane that vanished in 2014.
However, Australian government agencies have continued to look over the evidence that had been gathered and have not ruled out resuming the search if more detailed information comes to light.
The two reports prepared by Geoscience Australia and the CSIRO have now been released providing analysis of French satellite imagery taken two weeks after the disappearance of MH370. The images cover an area that was not part of the underwater search but still positioned along the seventh arc.
“Geoscience Australia identified a number of objects in the satellite imagery which have been classified as probably man-made,” Hood said. “The image resolution is not high enough to be certain whether the objects originated from MH370 or are other objects that might be found floating in oceans around the world.”

The new reports appear to bolster the ATSB’s conclusion that the plane most likely crashed north of the area it spent more than two-and-a-half years searching.
In April, the CSIRO published modelling on the drift of a Boeing 777 flaperon consistent with the one from MH370 that was found washed up on La Réunion in July 2015. The drift modelling reaffirmed the Australian Transport Safety Bureau’s conclusion that the crash site of MH370 was to be found in the new search area the ATSB identified at the end of 2016, the CSIRO said.
Malaysia, as the state of registry for the aircraft, retains overall authority and responsibility for any future search.
